We know that policy engagement (and impact) is relational - and subject to the politics of particular issues! Fascinating paper on how different ideologies cite research by @alexanderfurnas.com @dashunwang.bsky.social @timlapira.bsky.social using O data. Check out our breakdown of the paper below 👇
